How do I make an editable CPT file if my theme doesn't have a single.php?

Hey all,

First of all, everything else about CustomPress appears to work brilliantly, thank you. :slight_smile:

I'm trying to create an editable single.php file (or whatever) for a Custom Post Type. I've set the theme's folder permissions to 777 (and also tried setting them recursively within the folder), but I keep returning a copy error, and an instruction to set permissions to 777.

I think this is because my theme uses an index.php file rather than a single.php file; there's no single.php for the plugin to copy. If that's the case, how can I get an editable file together so I can embed and style the custom fields I need for it?

That's the end of the loop in your theme, your most likely going to need to make a child theme and edit copy your loop to the child theme and edit as in this screenshot from the custom press usage guide (screenshot attached).

So in between the codes I pasted above you'll want to add your custom post type somewhere within that and remove other things if you only want the custom post types to show (I hope this makes sense).
